RESULTS REVIEW 1QFY20 18 JULY 2019 Colgate-Palmolive (India) NEUTRAL Story remains sombre… Colgate’s 1Q performance was slightly below our estimates (revenue and APAT). The story remains sombre but senior level management churn instills new hope. We cut EPS by ~2% to factor slower than expected recovery in FY20. We roll forward to Jun-21 EPS and value the co. at 35x, arriving at a TP of Rs 1,281. Maintain NEUTRAL. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER Revenues grew by 4% (vs. exp. of 6%) driven by 4% volume growth. Domestic biz was up by 6%. Volume growth was sluggish given (a) Slowdown in rural (now trailing urban), (b) Market share loss (-25bps YoY to 52.7%) and (c) Slow-moving category growth (trails FMCG sector by 2-3%). Competitive intensity remains high particularly at LUP (Rs 10/pack). Naturals growth has now tapered to mid-teens from 25- 30% range as it has attained a meaningful share (>25% mix in oral care category). Within naturals, Colgate has gained market share (8.1% in CY18 vs. 6.5-7% in CY17) led by Swarna Vedshakti and re-launch of Colgate Salt. Premium segment (4% mix vs. 8% mix earlier) has returned back to growth (single-digit) vs. degrowth earlier (impacted by naturals). Co. has re-launched Colgate Total to capitalize on this trend. Colgate was able to arrest GM pressure (-5bps YoY) after a sharp decline in 4QFY19 (-110bps). A&P/Other expenses grew by 5/-3% which resulted in 6.5% growth in EBITDA (vs. exp of 5.5%). Co continues to spend handsomely on A&P (~13% of sales) and hence aggression hereon seems unlikely. APAT grew by modest 5% to Rs 1.69bn (exp Rs 1.78bn) owing to higher other income (+66%) and higher taxes (+204bps). STANCE Colgate’s market share has largely stabilized but we still don’t see signs of gaining meaningful share anytime soon. As a category leader, Colgate needs to drive category growth at a time when natural’s fad is moderating. Senior level management churn (Ram Raghavan - MD and Mukul Deoras – India chairman) keeps us interested in the story. Ram began his career as a management trainee with Colgate India in 1997. His recent experience as the head of innovation center at Colgate-Palmolive LATAM is exactly what Colgate India needs i.e. product excitement and diversification. With limited upside, we remain NEUTRAL on the company. We will be tracking any revamp in strategy that may trigger our upgrade.

RESULTS REVIEW 1QFY20 18 JULY 2019

Colgate-Palmolive (India) NEUTRAL

Story remains sombre… Colgate’s 1Q performance was slightly below our estimates (revenue and APAT). The story remains sombre but senior level management churn instills new hope. We cut EPS by ~2% to factor slower than expected recovery in FY20. We roll forward to Jun-21 EPS and value the co. at 35x, arriving at a TP of Rs 1,281. Maintain NEUTRAL.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER Revenues grew by 4% (vs. exp. of 6%) driven by 4%

volume growth. Domestic biz was up by 6%. Volumegrowth was sluggish given (a) Slowdown in rural (nowtrailing urban), (b) Market share loss (-25bps YoY to52.7%) and (c) Slow-moving category growth (trailsFMCG sector by 2-3%). Competitive intensity remainshigh particularly at LUP (Rs 10/pack).

Naturals growth has now tapered to mid-teens from 25-30% range as it has attained a meaningful share (>25%mix in oral care category). Within naturals, Colgate hasgained market share (8.1% in CY18 vs. 6.5-7% in CY17)led by Swarna Vedshakti and re-launch of Colgate Salt.

Premium segment (4% mix vs. 8% mix earlier) hasreturned back to growth (single-digit) vs. degrowthearlier (impacted by naturals). Co. has re-launchedColgate Total to capitalize on this trend.

Colgate was able to arrest GM pressure (-5bps YoY)after a sharp decline in 4QFY19 (-110bps). A&P/Otherexpenses grew by 5/-3% which resulted in 6.5% growthin EBITDA (vs. exp of 5.5%). Co continues to spendhandsomely on A&P (~13% of sales) and henceaggression hereon seems unlikely.

APAT grew by modest 5% to Rs 1.69bn (exp Rs 1.78bn)owing to higher other income (+66%) and higher taxes(+204bps).

STANCE

Colgate’s market share has largely stabilized but we still don’t see signs of gaining meaningful share anytime soon. As a category leader, Colgate needs to drive category growth at a time when natural’s fad is moderating. Senior level management churn (Ram Raghavan - MD and Mukul Deoras – India chairman) keeps us interested in the story. Ram began his career as a management trainee with Colgate India in 1997. His recent experience as the head of innovation center at Colgate-Palmolive LATAM is exactly what Colgate India needs i.e. product excitement and diversification. With limited upside, we remain NEUTRAL on the company. We will be tracking any revamp in strategy that may trigger our upgrade.

Colgate’s Toothpaste Market Share Colgate’s Toothbrush Market Share

Source: Company, HDFC sec Inst Research Source: Company, HDFC sec Inst Research

Market share declines in the last 2 years for Colgate in toothpaste have come from its premium segment (Colgate Sensitive and Colgate Total). The premium segment revenue contribution is at ~4% vs. ~8% earlier

Market share has now largely stabilized at ~52%

Colgate continued to face intense competition in the naturals segment (25% mix for industry) which is dominated by Dabur and Patanjali (80% combined share)
